Carol was originally from Nova Scotia and a good friend of my wife (Marg.) In the 1960s Carol went to teach school in Quebec community just across river from Hawksberry ON. She met Don and they married. We went to visit them once at Mille Isle. At that point we had never met Don. We arrived in Hawksberry about 7pm, (as this was a surprise visit them we phoned) it was so foggy you could barely see 50'. Carol was at a meeting, so Don agreed to come and meet us in Hawksberry, he said we would never find Mille Isle in fog. Don and I did so much farming that Nov. night, he let his wood fires go out, man that big house was cold at 2 am.

Just have a gut feeling we are talking about same guy.

Always liked the look of that Eastern Ontario farmland. Drove through it on several ocasions, and briefly stopped to visit. Always wanted to take an indepth look, but just never took the time. One of our daughters lived a winter in Ottawa. Her reports of those Ottawa temperatures, satisfied my urge to look closer.

"49 Cub, "67 Cub Loboy.
Sold the "44 A and crying about it ever since. It"s in good hands though down @ Kalamazoo Mich.

If it wasn't for the eastener's and their darned taxes, it would be a pretty darned good place to live.

The way it is now, I'm either workin' for the IRS or the State of Nebraska.

Was your grandpa's name Arnold? Or, was that his dad's name?

I think I just about know all the peters, 'cause that's my turf; you must be a cousin to Jerry and Gene? How were you related to old Joe Peters? One of your cousins (Ron) runs the bank in Hay Springs now.

Our farms are on the west end down there; the Peters' all lived over on the east side except Don who lived just up the road from me & Dan who farmed closer to Hay Springs.

Billy Chris drilled both of our wells and our first one was the third or fouth on the flats... Billy drilled his own well first as I recall.

Remember Billy well; he was very well thought of in this country. He had a hired man with a hook for a right hand too.....think he got it taken off in a well driller winch or some such thing.

I could go on and on. The wife and I came within an eyeblink of buying Shirley's (Bob Peters) place over NW of Rushville last fall. Nice place, but not irrigated.

Thanks for the hollar,

Allan

Your great, great, (maybe great again) grampa Arnold was the one who was always tanglin' & scrappin' with Jules Sandoz. (From Old Jules fame by Marie Sandoz). :>) Those two both lit on the flats the the mid 1860s & fought tooth and nail.

Is this the granpa who moved up to your country? Never did hear all of the story. He was more than likely the dad of the granpa you speak of.
